Awesome

I like the story, but just don’t try drag it out. The Haru ark is unnecessary. The story should have just ended with the Valentines ark.

But what about best waifu Futaba? xD

Well this was overall a cute story to read about, although I'm very much hoping this doesn't devolve into a harem story. Especially with how unequal the relationship dynamics would be.

Hmmm, a harem potential eh? Didn't see that coming honestly, or even if the other girls (save Lavenza and Haru) would accept the idea. Oh well, more to look forward to.

This is really good, especially since most rare pairs hardly get any limelight!

I think most reviewers (Whittling Experience Serial in particular is right no point here) are right on the money when it comes to Haru in this story. You shouldn't feel obligated to return someone's feelings just because they love you.

If someone asks you 'do you love me' and you say 'no' nothing else matters, don't get together! Especially if that person tries to guilt you into being with them!

Again, loving this, please continue!

What an amazing chapter, yet again. It's a great day whenever you update! The deliberation of both Haru and Akira really make this chapter shine. You did a great job of portraying it. The kiss was sweet too. I'm really interested to see where this fic ends up!

Kinda hoping for just AkiraxLavenza but ah well.. we'll see where this goes...

That would leave with the other female thieves' thoughts on their feelings with Joker.

Agreeing with NOTaTurtle2002. The heart of the appeal of the story has been that Akira and Lavenza are soulmates, and the only ones for each other. The fact that this is even a question for him at this point is an insult to that. As is his seeming failure to recall how happy being with Lavenza makes him (which would constitute being happy "for himself"). Citing Justine and Caroline's views on "sharing" is not a valid comparison - given their nature as two halves of the same being - and it leads to a clash with what Lavenza had resolved together with Akira in Heart to Heart. This is putting aside, too, the fraudulent guilt-trip Akira has been put through the past chapter's-length or so, which it doesn't seem Haru is going to face any indictment over (something that Lavenza herself would have been in a perfect position to deliver).

Spectacular and beautiful chapter.
Very good conversations.
What a thrill. You know how to keep up with the plot.
Hahaha, the question about choosing between Justine and Caroline is tricky. Above all because they are both the same person, in addition to that they themselves say that he does not have to choose one of them alone.
Thanks for the update.
Keep it up and Greetings.

Another lovely chapter~

I'm not sure whether it's heading in this direction but please don't turn it into polygamy

Kinda harsh on Akira the girls are being, minus Futaba and to a lesser extent Haru. I mean, Makoto was 'stalking' him, and not for the first time either. / Switch the gender roles there and everyone would have issue with it. That's way too far, particularly just because he's in love with Lavenza. I mean, he's been an amazing friend and confident to all of them, he just happens to be in love with someone else. How in any sense does that justify any of what they (particularly Makoto) are doing? O.o

Regardless, superb writing.

Definitely a fun story and can't wait to see how the story progresses after this cliffhanger.
